Jane Campion will be presented with the Carrosse d’Or award at the Cannes Film Festival May 16.
The kudos is awarded annually by Film Directors Guild and sponsored by Canal+ Cinéma. It is a tribute paid by the directors to honor one of their own, chosen from the international filmmaking community for the innovative qualities, the courage and independent mindedness of his or her work. Since its creation in 2002, this award has been given to Jacques Rozier, Clint Eastwood, Nanni Moretti, Ousmane Sembene, David Cronenberg, Alain Cavalier, Jim Jarmusch, Naomi Kawase, Agnès Varda, Jafar Panahi and Nuri Bilge Ceylan in 2012.
There will be an afternoon conversation with Campion, followed by a screening at Cannes’ Théâtre Croisette.
The prize will be presented that evening during the Directors’ Fortnight opening ceremony. »
